Hi.. Some channels with Progdvb Engine sometimes not works or stream video without audio or when launching starts in SD quality and after 4-5 seconds streams in HD or FHD. I've solved this problem using Lib VLC engine that seems work better.
With latest Version of ProgDVB 7.67.2 a big part of channels when playing open a Window out of ProgDVB program ( like a Pop up ) that say VLC (Direct3D11 Output)
You can test with this channel for example , is a free italian channel ( i don't know if is geoblocked) - If need i have other channels to test.

I think that is very annoying because is not possiblle to close window, the windos close only if Stop channel.
Is possible to have an option to play this channels like old versions in ProgDVB App ?

With 2b version seems all ok... i've tested with a lot a channels
2 Questions..
1) if in future is possible to visualize resolution of a channel in OSD like progdvb engine
2) is normalr that whn usin Lib VLC the channels starts in SD and after 4-5 seconds of streams the channels pass to HD or FHD ( that is the original resolution )
Thanks for support. I've deleted images.. Sorry for posting images

1) if You look in Progdvb Engine in OSD appears Resolution Codec, Audio etc etc.. In Lib VLC not appears
2) Yes i'm sure, is not very important, is only annoying if zapping..
I'm using Trace Latina for tasting that is Native in HD 1280x720 buta same problem also in FHD
I use Lib VLC because in ProgDvb Engine the channes remains in slow quality. In Lib Vlc switchin after 3-4 seconds

I aclare that i write for feedbacks and suggestions. My questions are for purpose or testing...
P.s. For curiosity i've tested also in android versions ( Normal 2.92.0 and Beta+ 3.49.0 ) and channel/s streams only in LQ. Also changing engines and Video Codecs
